"Crank 2," "Underworld 3," "Game" Updates

Head of Lakeshore Entertainment, Tom Rosenberg, spoke to Collider about some of his upcoming projects, which include "Crank 2," "Underworld 3" and "Game."

Comparing "Crank 2" to the original, Rosenberg said that "it's actually similar and more extreme, so what propels Jason is even more extreme than the drug that he took." Regarding whether a trilogy is in mind, Rosenberg said "we'll see... it leaves off where that's possible." He added that "we have a script and we are starting it right about April 1st."

Speaking of the third installment of "Underworld," Rosenberg said: "I think it's the strongest story that we've put together of the three. I think it's really terrific. I think it leads to a fourth. When we did the 1st Underworld, we imagined three - the first one, a sequel and then a prequel. The third is a prequel, so the fourth would carry on where Kate and Scott Speedman left off after two."

"In the first one, Michael Sheen's wife Sonia was killed by Victor (Bill Nighy) and that was his daughter," he continued. "That was the back-story for Michael Sheen. Obviously this is how they meet and Michael Sheen becomes the leader of the werewolves. This is told from the werewolf's perspective, not the vampire's. It's their story and their battle with Victor."

While Rosenberg didn't go into great details regarding "Game," which stars Gerard Butler and is directed by "Crank" helmers Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor, he still mentioned how incredible the film will be. "It's the wildest film I've ever been involved in. It makes 'Crank' look tame. It's insane. I mean, it's insane. This could be a different movie where it's qualitatively a different experience for the audience."
